Clio 172
hi all new here and owned my 172 for 2 months 2nd major problem first was exhaust falling off but i resolved that.
my cars a clio 172 sport 2003 which has the fbw, wish it was cable less issues lol.
drove car yesterday for about 20 miles and has been fine with no issues apart from a low idle say 800rpm,
now when i tried to start my engine today it refused to start turns over fine but wont fire.
now when i popped the bonnet i noticed there was a whining electrical sound, like when u hold a drill trigger down slightly.
i narrowed the sound down the throttle body with tps, its was twitching like a r****d, so i took the pipe work off and had a poke at it and it was spacking out, i asked my gf to press the throttle and it was opening ok but just twitching when closed.
so is the source of my problems? is it not sending a signal to the ecu or something resulting in no fuel being injected, i cant smell any fuel either.
all help appreciated
kind regards
tony.
